Abstract

A data transmission system includes a master device and a slave device group. The slave device group includes a first slave device and a second slave device. The master device, the first slave device, and the second slave device are sequentially connected in series along a data transmission path. The master device transmits a streaming signal to the slave device group, and the slave device group analyzes the streaming signal to identify which one of the first slave device and the second slave device is a target slave device for performing an access operation on the streaming signal. The target slave device generates a streaming response signal based on the streaming signal and transmits the streaming response signal to the master device. The master device analyzes the streaming response signal to identify the streaming response signal is generated by the first slave device or the second slave device.
